Can't wait to fly over @Benm house again. Maybe I'll ask the pilot of United 1305 to circle around a point
-
Correct. He went to Copper. Vail doesn't funk around. You'd think it would be a warning the first time. There's a sign that says "28 days suspension and legal action". I wonder what legal action is ever taken?
-
Hell naw
-
Some radical pics from today.

Unfortunately my brah got a 28 day Epic Pass suspension on Tuesday for going out of bounds. As we all know, Vail just doesn't have enough terrain in bounds.
-
Escargood was grate and it's my last day so maybe I'll buy a $500 dinner like @AtomicSkier. Some premium Mer Lot would be radical. I skied groomers, trees, glades, bowls, back bowls, courdoroy, snow, perder, slopes, hills, mountains, steeps, catwalks, adventure parks, moguls, deep perder, soft snow, hard snow, ice, grippy snow, and between bushes.

Ordered some fine wine and escargot at Lancelot. That shit was dope. Only $44, what a bargain. @Ski2Live Live2Ski would suggest a fool and money soon departed. Too bad I didn't have a coupon to save $3.50

Damn Daniel, that sounds mint. I wish I was at Blue today instead of Vail. All this deep powder and long trails are wearing out my legs.
-
Taking a rest day at Vail Resorts. Does anyone know where the mint is here?? @Mixilplix

Yeah that's just not right. When I'm at a ski resort the wait should be less than a minute. I'm probably quitting early Friday, I'm not doing those stupid long lines. Today was grate tho. There were no lines. I even rode the gondola solo and also once with some hot babes. Also skied nearly open to close which is a rarity for me. I was in the zone today. Yesterday we got some perder. I think like 8 inches. I skied the famous Back Bowls(tm) which was sickbird. We found some gnarly glades which was rad.
-
You should come to Vail and you can help me with my checked bags on the way home and we can each get a hot toddy. Then we can post more food pics and travel stories on this thread.

On Monday I got super triggered. This one chairlift ended up being like a 15 minute wait. Every few minutes some gapers would screw up and stop the lift. I got big mad. It was worse than Camelback. That was total BS. Today was grate, 2 or 3 minutes waits at teh liftz
-
Pretzel bites with a Hot Toddy. Only $28.96 and even got a few dollars off with my Epic Pass. @Ski2Live Live2Ski would be so proud of my thrifty spending at Vail. If only I shoved a mushy salami sandwich in my pocket I could have saved three fitty. And I didn't even get carded which was rad, while the next person in line did. That was sick not having to fish for my photo ID in my ski pants.

Nah

I think Vail's big enough that I'm fine staying here. I don't feel like learning another mountain. The first day here was confusing as fudge trying to figure out where to go. Now I'm getting the feel for the layout
-
Oooh Lo Que Dijo!!!
-
Thanks, I'm writing a procedure for next season and putting it in my ski boot bag so I don't have to deal with this shit again. When I leave Saturday my brahs with boot bags can go first and I'll do what they do
-
I ate a burrito on Sunday when we arrived. It was grate, it reminded me of my local cultural food in Northeast PA and lessened my homesickness. I just eat a big breakfast and skip lunch usually. Maybe I'll put a cereal bar in my pocket. My brahs put sandwiches in their pockets but I think that sounds terrible. I don't want to eat a mushy sloppy mess. If I bring a sandwich to work I pack the loaf of bread, mustard, and meat separately and then make the sandwich when it's time to eat so it's fresh. It would be a challenge to ski with a load of bread.
-
I ate some grate Mexican food in Vail. It reminded me of home. I haven't talked to any babies during this ski trip.
-
Some grate pictures with my brahs

I have an extra baggage tag now to practice. The agents weren't very helpful. Now a days it's a do it yourself. I decided to go the boot bag root because you can check two bags for the price of one. I don't boot up in the lodge, that's just a waste of time Eagle airport. We opted for a direct flight from Nork which was really nice.
-
United bag check at Nork pissed me off. So I prepaid for 1 ski and 1 boot bag, and also opted to check my carry on for free. At the kiosk there was no option for printing 2 separate stickers for the ski and boot bags, so I ended up with 2 stickers but needed 3. I accidently put the carry on sticker on the ski boot bag. Then I went to the front desk and asked them to print an extra ticket and they said I had to go back to the kiosk. I said the kiosk doesn't provide an option but they said too bad. I asked them to check in my ski boot bag to get rid of that at least. So I go back to the kiosk and start over and a helper is there. I got 2 tickets printed but I was flustered so I misplaced one sticker. And the stickers said hockey equipment. So now I still needed one ticket. Fortunately my brah had an extra sticker because he prepaid for more than he needed so my ski bag was under my brah's name. Somehow by a Christmas miracle all my gear ended up at Vail and now it's radical.

Looks like we got 8 inches last night at Vail. Maybe I'll ask someone to take a picture of me skiing the perder and then I'll put that photograph on a credit card. TIG JADIP WTGAI.

Nah, I was out late with my brahs last night so I decided to start cleaning up the shit mess around my home left by the winter
